Bernard Di Sciullo (1930-2017) Action Painting painter was born in Paris where his paternal family from Southern Italy found a shelter. For Di Sciullo : "I had several masters, Giovanni Bernabei, for Italian trips and language, music, Dupuy painter, Eckenroth, priest and spiritual guide, Barbault, astrologist, Creuze for philosophy and art quest."

From 1948 to 1953 he studies both in Beaux-Arts, Paris with Limouse and Dentist University and becomes a dentist. In 1950 he meets his wife Geneviève Dupuy, dentist, thanks to her he can keep painting and dentist becomes his second job. In 1956 he meets Raymond Creuze, Riopelle and Charchoune art gallery in Paris, Creuze consents to a Solo Show only in 1965 and 1967, once he renounces to his Gold Number perfection and figurative art. Abstraction was then a dictatorship. 1974-1977, Jean-Pierre Simon, art dealer without gallery, leaves France for the USA in 1977, forever, with his paintings. Creuze closes his gallery. In 1984, he divorces, leaves Paris for Cachan, has collective shows until his death. In 1988, his friends Max Morel and Anglade advise him to meet Lise Cormery where he has permanent shows from 1988 until his death.
